Workshop on "Advances in Conceptual Modeling in Design"

In conjunction with 6th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Design'00, 26-29 June 2000, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, near Boston,
Massachusetts, USA

25 June 2000

THE WORKSHOP The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing an on-going state-of-the-art research and applications in conceptual modeling as part of the artificial intelligence methodologies in design. The variety of semantic design data and knowledge modeling (including entity-relationship and object-oriented modeling), design process and product modeling, and modeling for Web-based design environments are only part of conceptual modeling in design. Conceptual modeling methods provide the necessary framework for the representation of design information in all design domains.

Conceptual modeling in a domain such as design has to take into account the concepts of various disciplines with different conceptual concerns. For example, in the building design architects are concerned with spaces and form, engineers with energy control and flow of forces and constructors with elemental and time concepts. Other disciplines with concerns include facilities management and even occupational therapists. This workshop is an attempt to bring together experts in the field of conceptual modeling in design and domain experts from different applied disciplines related to design, who are dealing with different aspects of conceptual modeling.
